Esperanza, Courthouse is a 1795 ink by Charles Balthazar Julien Févret de Saint-Mémin, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a small building with a courtyard in the painting. It's a simple scene, but what's interesting is that the artist used a lot of detail to show the textures of the buildings. The artist also paid attention to the lighting, which adds depth to the scene. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique of etching.
